❑ TEXTO 1:
Food can be dangerous for your health!
When you go to a restaurant you often think that the food you
are ordering is good for you. But many restaurants serve healthy
food, like fish or salad, with a sauce or dressing that uses a lot
of oil, fat, or sugar. The British Food Standards Agency wants
all restaurants to say in their menus exactly what is in each
dish, how many calories, how much fat, and what additives.
They think that restaurants don’t give their customers enough
information, and that this new plan could help people to have a
healthier diet.
But chefs are not happy with the Agency’s plan. One top chef
said, ‘People are not stupid. They know that many sauces
have butter and cream in them. But if we put on a menu that a
dish has 1,000 calories, nobody is going to order it!’
However, many doctors agree with the plan. Bruce Ward,
Professor of Medicine, said, ‘People know that cigarettes are
bad for them, because it tells you on the packet. But when
they go to a restaurant they often have no idea if the food is
healthy or not. Food products that have a lot of calories, fat,
and sugar need a health warning, exactly like cigarettes.’

- Professor Penelope Brown and Professor Stephen Levinson wrote in 1987 (2nd edition) a famous book entitled Politeness: some universals in language usage (Cambridge University Press). The book is the real portrait of American and British uses of politeness on a daily basis, especially in several social encounters where oral language is the fundamental mode of communication. One specific particle in oral communication is what Brown and Levinson call “hedges”, that is to say, a particle or word that modifies the force of a request, command or information in order for the speaker to maintain a polite way of expressing her/his intentions through language.
Based on
these assumptions, choose the ONLY option below that does
not take into account politeness in requests and information:
